Wait, are you telling me they have a 15 year old who is 6'7" and weighs 325? surely that's projected right?
I get the brothers, probably their genetics, but a 15 year hold who's 6'7 325? that has to be a hell of a sight
"The Next Big Thing" I hope it is not to early to be thinking about college, but it would be hard to miss a 15 year old kid who blocks out the light when he walks down a hallway. At 6-foot-7, 325 pounds, and a GPA of 3.9, Richard Webb (Rico) is well-suited for the tackle position. His strength and arm-span allow him to be effective in both run- and pass-blocking, but perhaps his greatest asset is his athleticism - Webb's quickness of reflexes and speed are unmatched among high school offensive linemen. Webb is widely recognized as one of the best sophomore tackles in high school, especially in pass protection. Webb's blocking assisted the Georgetown Prep Hoyas freshman team to a undefeated championship win in the MIAA 2008 season. Webb has now transferred to Dematha Catholic High School in the WCAC football conference - 2009. Webb did not allow a sack in his last two years at Prep and now at Dematha. Webb has now helped his Dematha JV team with a perfect 2009 undefeated championship season. Webb is a massive, powerful offensive tackle who moves well and has nimble feet for such a big guy. He is a tenacious tall bookend blocker who "pancakes" everyone! The class 2012 player to watch!

Re: "The Next Big Thing" Wow! How likely to get a kid from the mid-Atlantic region (in the heart of ACC territory) to play for an SEC school? :geauxtige
Re: "The Next Big Thing" Having one of the best football facilities the recruiting game has changed. You will find that your top players are drawn to the glamour.
Re: "The Next Big Thing" Okay, maybe this is a stupid question but, why is he playing JV? edit: k, I see the other thread about the OT's ahead of him but damn, surely there's some playin time for a kid that big at one of the line spots on offense or defense. I can't believe he's getting any real challenge goin head up on a bunch of JV defensive tackles.
